Lyrics

Kanashimi ni oitsukarenu you massugu ni sora wo mezasu yo

Kinou nante furikiru [SUPIIDO] de
Nanno tame ni utatteru no? Nanno tame ni hashittekita?
[Hoshi] wo nokosou.......

Yoru no tobari... oriru kishibe de... hitori yoiyami... hoshi wo miteita...
Doko e itte mo... itanda to hajikare... kireta kuchibiru... kaze ga shimiru...

No more rage... No more grief...
Nikushimi no nai risou no sekai wo omoi egakedo mo...
Nozomarete yattekita sono konkyosae mo naku...
Love me do... Love me do...
Sakebi tsuzuketa...

Kanashimi ni oitsukarenu you massugu ni sora wo mezasu yo
Namida nante furikiru [SUPIIDO] de
Nanno tame ni ikiteiru no? Nanno tame ni umaretekita?

[Hoshi] wo sagasou......
I’ll aim straight for the skies to outrun my sadness

With a <speed> that’ll leave yesterday in the dust
For what am I singing? For what have I come this far?
I’ll leave behind <the proof of my life engulfed in fire>[a star]...

By the shore...upon which the curtains of night falls...I watched the stars...alone in dusk...
No matter where I go...I was treated as an unwelcome outsider...my lips cut...the wind sends chills through me...

No more rage... No more grief...
Even if I envision an ideal world devoid of hatred...
I have no evidence of my arrival being desired...
Love me do.... Love me do...
I continued to shout...

I’ll aim straight for the skies to outrun my sadness
With a <speed> that’ll leave my tears in the dust
For what am I living? For what was I born?
I’ll search for <a place to consume my life in fire>[a star]...
